Day two we woke up after sleeping in - it was great. After eating breakfast and breaking down camp, the plan was to start hiking towards our next camp site - Campamento Italiano. This was the lake we camped next to for our first night.
The hike to our next camp took us about 2.5 hours and was a beautiful hike...
ahhhh..... the glacier water is the best in the world!
This is the bridge into camp. This suspension bridge only allowed two people on the bridge at one time do to the stability (or lack there of....).
After setting up camp and having a snack, we began our day trip which was heading into ´Valle del Frances´ (the French Valley). This was a 5 hour round-trip journey that took us into some of the most beautiful terrain I´ve ever seen... at that point..... The photo above was taken about 10 minutes outside of our camp.
This mountain kept having avalanche releases (don´t worry mom, we weren´t anywhere close to the snow!)
From the view point, you would look to the left, and see this very cold, glacier covered mountain and to the right, you´d see the most beautiful rock formations with no snow at all, the Cuerno´s (above) was amazing!!!
After we returned to camp, we hung out for the rest of the night. This is the suspension bridge right next to camp - absolutely beautiful!
